Who Would Listen? (Psychosis)

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

What colour would I describe my soul, blue or beige?

Not sure what stops me from getting incessant rage,

The way I found my way to Jesus was more than strange.

Nobody can really comprehend the things I've seen,

Never ask for attention, some demand a white beam.

Head kept under the radar is where I'd rather remain,

Psychosis will no longer have a firm and steady grip again.

I really feel for those who are stuck in the mental health system,

Those attacks come from outside the mind but who would listen?

    A most interesting write that to me says what one believes is the truth. Well done

    Shaun, this hit me…there’s a raw honesty here that doesn’t try to soften itself. It feels lived-in, not performed. That tension between what you’ve seen and how you carry it now really lands. Well done, my friend. Happy Lord's Day to you, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
